Cook with Us #2 - THE BOMB DOT COM!
Three-Ingredient Dish
This week we did a creamy smooth Vegan Chocolate Mousse using just three simple but extremely healthy ingredients:
- Avocados
- Cacao Powder
- Maple Syrup
This recipe is super easy to make and is actually a very healthy dessert. Its loaded with healthy fats from the Avocados which also contain nearly 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. Just one serving of this superfood offers eight percent of the daily value of fiber. The Cacao offers us 40 times the antioxidants of blueberries. It's the highest plant-based source of iron and is full of Magnesium which is great for the heart and brain. It also contains more calcium than cow's milk which acts as a natural mood elevator and anti-depressant. The health benefits of Maple Syrup include a healthy heart and a healthier immune system. It also has antioxidant properties that protect our body from free radicals.
None of that really matters as this dessert is what my wife likes to call "The Bomb Dot Com"
Tip For Parents
The best part of this dessert, is because it's filled with good fats, your kids will not eat too much. It's a great way to help little ones from overeating...when you add nutrient dense foods paired with good quality fats you and your kids will actually eat less food! I hope you enjoyed this post as we certainly enjoyed making and eating this week's contest entry!
How To Make It
Blend four ripen avocados and 3/4 cup of cacao powder. While blending add maple syrup about 8-10 tablespoons (sweeten to taste ) and coconut oil 1/4 cup. Add a pinch of salt for taste and blend until you see a creamy consistency. Vuala you're done!
Great post. Would be very helpful to me. Thanks
Looks like the kids had a great time helping out with the dessert. So simple, yet so nutritious.
Yeah it's a fun way to bond and teach lessons on cooking!

Thank you @hafizalam5556! The photo proof was done for a contest im in. You should throw your hat in the ring and try a dish for next week!!! The info is @cookwithus. It's a great place to meet new people!!
Awesome post! I invite you to visit our blog and vote us back! And of course to enjoy our content :)
Thank-you @nitosnews1! I loved the scooby-doo article....made me laugh!
Well, well, well ... here we are with a successful group project. Looks like the whole team enjoyed the activity and the outcome.
I have to say that this puts my last post, chocolate fondue, to shame. Yours has all the healthy ingredients while mine ... uhm, no. Oh well, if you load up on the fruits that go with the chocolate fondue, then maybe it can make up for the heavy cream. Or maybe not ... :(
Great use of three ingredients. Sometimes I have ripe avocados that have been neglected but need some attention. Your dish is a great option for this situation.
Thanks for sharing and good luck to you!
Man I love me some fondue! I haven't had some in so so long! My family is really loving this contest. We are already winners :)
Am so glad to hear your family is loving this contest. That's what matters. The CwU team is loving it too and we hope our readers feel the same. Yes, we are all already winners!
Another interesting recipe @ground2feet. I once made ice cream with avocado and it had a whole tin of condensed milk in it. It was delicious but unfortunately I was the only one who ate it. The family were not keen on avo in a dessert - but worked well for me. Glad your offspring liked it. Very cute kids
Thank you for your comment! We are loving this contest. As a family, we are already thinking about next weeks recipe. Its fun to see what two year olds come up with. I have never tried ice cream but that sounds like something fun to try!
Man, I wonder if you can make a like a mousse with it...I'm going to have to try it now. Thanks man!
You'll love it man!
